Music in the Gardens: Ben Benavente

Craft beer, live music, lush garden setting? Sounds like a recipe for a good time. Every Thursday this summer, sip on specialty beers from San Diego and beyond while you enjoy a variety of musical genres in the outdoors. Good vibes guaranteed.

This week:

Ben Benavente specializes in Hawaiian/Island style music from Fiji to Ka'au Crater Boys, Jack Johnson, Bruno Mars and Jason Mraz. A softer reggae most would say. He creates entire songs on the fly by looping and recording live. He starts off by recording the drums then piano, bass guitar and then singing and playing ukulele live.

Artist subject to change.

For centuries, gargoyles have been known to ward off evil spirits. Since 1996, our gargoyle has helped us ward off cheap ingredients, pasteurization and chemical additives... the modern-day evil spirits of beer!
